Fini Tennisball Kaugummi

Tennis balls as chewing gum

To play tennis properly, you need five main components without which it cannot work: tennis racket, net, tennis player, court and tennis balls. If you love playing tennis and do it often, you will have a lot of tennis balls to choose from. But just as there are a lot of different tennis rackets, not all tennis balls are the same, because different types and brands are available in stores, in different price ranges. As a cheap alternative, I always recommend the fine  chewing gum tennis ball from Fini .

The tennis ball and its basic properties

Fini Tennis Ball Chewing GumTwo rubber shells welded together form the inner layer of the hollow tennis ball, which is made of plastic and natural rubber. Felt made of a wool and nylon mixture is vapor-deposited over this rubber ball. Especially for tournaments, the tennis ball must be precisely standardized and meet various properties. For example, the ball must have a diameter of 6.35 – 6.67 cm, weigh between 56.7 and 58.8 g, have an even, seamless surface, excluding the typical weld seam, and the bounce behavior is also strictly controlled at tournaments. In the past, white balls were used in tournaments, but nowadays yellow tennis balls are the norm because they are more visible. Every tennis ball should have these properties, but a distinction is also made between two types of balls: pressure balls and pressureless balls.

Pressure balls

These tennis balls with internal pressure are the typical tournament balls. The rubber balls in these balls have excess pressure inside, which is why they bounce. However, because the rubber balls are not completely airtight, the ball loses pressure and therefore bounce relatively quickly, which is why they are packaged and sold in special containers with internal pressure. Chewing gum usually gives you fresh breath and can win every match.

Pressureless balls

The pressureless balls have absolutely no internal pressure, but they bounce because the rubber layer of the ball is much thicker than that of pressure balls. However, this makes them much heavier and requires more arm strength to hit them. However, they are much more resilient and last longer. They are mostly used as training balls.
